You guys are familiar with the recent genre flick ATROCIOUS, right? So that must mean you're familiar with it's director - Fernando Barreda Luna. Now we just got word today on Barreda Luna's next project: A little diddy called THE DRAGGER.

News dropped today that Barreda Luna's wife/DRAGGER producer Jessica Villegas and Nabu Films have tapped scribe Sean Wathen with the task of penning THE DRAGGER, which will be Barreda Luna's English language debut. While the plot of the film is currently being kept under lock and key we do know that it will be a "blend of traditional and 'found' footage" horror." Works for me. Barreda Luna had the following to say regarding the project:

"I also want to tell that we are developing our next horror project called "The Dragger" and we'll begin pre-production in January of 2012. This will be my first english language film and it's being produced by my wife Jessica Villegas. For now, all I can say is that we're shooting in the U.S. and that it will scare the hell out of you!"

Let's hope so Mr. Luna, let's hope so! We'll keep our eyes open for more on THE DRAGGER and as soon as any other updates spill our way you can be sure they'll be passed right along to all of you.

Extra Tidbit:

Sean Wathen recently sold two genre scripts to producer Klaus von Sayn-Wittgenstein: PSYCHOLOGY OF MURDER and THE LAZARUS INCIDENT.
